Everyday Fare With Extraordinary Flair
A blend of ricotta, parmesan, and mozzarella cheese is paired with aromatic garlic, onion, and herbs in this delicious Three Cheese Stuffed Mushrooms appetizer recipe. It’s easy to make, always a crowd-pleaser, and keto friendly with 1 ingredient swap!
Every year some type of stuffed mushrooms graces my family’s Christmas Eve dinner table.…
Full of fall flavors, this Roasted Butternut Squash Salad features the natural sweetness of winter squash, earthy kale, nutty chickpeas, and honey apple vinaigrette to tie it all together. I’ve taken to calling our kitten (Elsa) butternut-butt. What can I say? It’s catchy and she’s a butternut fiend....
Foul Mudammas or Ful Medames (Egyptian Fava Beans) is a creamy, rich, and hearty recipe that’s brightened with a generous drizzle of peppery olive oil, fresh vegetables, and herbs. It’s a traditional breakfast dish in Egypt and the Levant area of the Middle East, and it’s typically served as part of a spread along with fresh vegetables and flatbread. A bowl of oatmeal. Bacon and eggs. Pancakes. What’s your favorite breakfast food? The answer to that question most likely depends where you live. For me, French toast for breakfast always meant a special occasion growing up!...
This recipe for Savory Cheesy Pumpkin Stuffed Shells has three types of cheese and marries the savory flavor of onion, garlic, and Italian herbs with subtly sweet pumpkin for a beautifully balanced tasting dish. Back home, Friday nights used to be my girls’-night-in sleepover night with my niece Autumn Rose. She’s all of ten now (wow, where did the time go?!), but you’d think she was at least fourteen from the way she looks (tallest in her class!) and the way she acts....
These Spanakopita Puff Pastry Bites have a crunchy, buttery puff pastry crust paired with a flavorful garlic, dill, kale, and feta filling. They are easy to make and perfect for your next party! Given the choice between a big, one-plate meal (like lasagna or roast chicken), or a meal of several small dishes, I will choose the small dishes at least nine out of ten times. That tenth time I just need roast chicken, lol....
Zucchini Roll Ups (aka Zucchini Rollatini) are filled with a savory cheese mixture and topped with tomato sauce similar to stuffed shells but with just 10g net carbs per serving. If your family likes cheesy pasta dishes, this veggie-based Zucchini Roll Ups recipe is sure to be a hit! It tastes similar to lasagna or stuffed shells, but with zucchini instead of noodles. If you have a ton of zucchini to use up, this recipe is the perfect dish to try!...
With artichoke hearts, Kalamata olives, sundried tomatoes, garlic, balsamic vinegar, and olive oil, this Mediterranean Pasta Salad Recipe is packed with flavor for the perfect 20 minute side dish! Most of us already have a favorite pasta salad in our cooking repertoire. But do you have the perfect pasta salad that you can whip up for any summer party, picnic, or BBQ? I definitely didn’t before this!...
This Lentil Salad Recipe with Herbed Goat Cheese and Balsamic Vinaigrette is a delicious and impressive-looking but easy-to-make salad that packs a ton of nutrition! Do you have a birthday buddy? I do; actually, I have a few. (Give me a shout out if your birthday is also September 30th!) But I was an adult when I first met I someone with the same birthday as mine. (Which is pretty sad, right? That would have been so much fun as a kid!)...
Lazy Pierogi Casserole with Sauerkraut and Apple (aka Lazy Perogies) has all the flavor of a delicious perogy, but with a quick, easy, and healthier spin! Once the crisp chill of autumn settles in, my mom eases back into her routine of making big traditional comfort meals for our Sunday suppers, instead of casual dinners cooked on the grill. A few years back she started making a dish that she calls Lazy Perogies that she learned from an old friend of the family. (Growing up in Buffalo, New York, this is actually a fairly popular recipe!)...
This Apple Walnut Rainbow Swiss Chard Salad Recipe features sweet crisp apples, crunchy toasted walnuts, and colorful rainbow Swiss chard dressed with a honey apple vinaigrette. I swear, if you hop backwards 11 times facing the sunset every Sunday, you won’t be sick all week!, a friend told me. Hmm…I guess I can see how that would work, I replied with a smile on my face. (Not so much, really, but who am I to judge?)...
